FARMINGToN, Jan. %.
Pennington had her usual quota of Friday
fires, yesterday. The citizens had just set
tied down from the alarm of the morning

lust above the village. The barn was occu-
pied by L. b. Stoyell and was filled with
hay. 1t burned fiat together with two
horses, harnesses and carriages. Total loss

A MYSTERIOUS DEATH.
The Remains of Mrs. Kate Scales Found
Frozen at Concord. n. IL.

CONCORD, Jan. -.
A coroner's jury has been in session i1ves-
tigatng the cause of the death of Mrs. Kate
Scales, alias Foss, whose body was found
frozen near the Claremont railroad track
this morning. An examination disclosed
bruises on the head and on one arm, and
quantity OF blood was seen a short distance
from where the body lay. Her shawl was
missing, and an undergarment was found in
a stone shed several rods away. Several
witnesses have been examined by the coroner,
two of whom testified that they heard cries
OF distress and groans from the direction of
the railroad track about 80 this morning.
one of them stating that he also distinctly
recognized cries of ''Murder.' and "H4lp!"
several times. Notwithstanding these susp-
clous circumstances, it is supposed that Mrs.
Scales was intoxicated and tnat she took the
track to walk t. her home near the railroad
crossing, but, being unable to do so, fell or
lay down and died from exposure. In sup.
port OF this assumption lady testified that
about | o'clock this morning an unknown
woman, apparently intoxicated. raped at her
house, about 80 yards from where the body
was discovered, and requested admttance,
but started away before her husband could
90 to the front door. Frank S. Morrill, a
married man, aged about 25 years, and the
last person known TO nave been IN her COM
pany last night testified, after which it was
decided to hold him pending further investi-
cation. Morrill, says he did not see her after
10 o'clock The authorities intend to nal Ike
a thorough investigation of the matter.
CoSCoRD, n. H., Jan. %.
The police do not believe there was any
foul play and are apparently convinced that
Mrs. Scales died from freezing, caused by
exposure, the result of her own indulgence
in intoxicating liquor. This relieves Frank
S. Morrill,, now in custody, from suspicion
because it was about two hours after he
claims to have left her that she was seen in
the railroad yard.

THE SCALE.

The Manufacturers VIII Not Grant the
Demands.
PITTsBURG, June 15.-The Amalgama-
ted Association devoted to-day to routine
matters entirely. No important business
was considered. The new scale was given
out tonight. As has been ex-
pected, it is an advance
generally of 10 per cent. over the present
scale, and besides this there are number
of new stipulations. Among the provis-
ions is one that two weeks output of boil
ing furnaces shall be averaged and
limited to 27,500 pounds double
and $4,000 pounds single turn,
no turn to exceed 1850. The firm shall
hang out a slate the day before pay day,
giving the weight of each furnace; also that
nine hours shall constitute q days work,
and in no case shall it exceed ten
hours. The nail cutting scale is un-
changed. The scale will be mailed
to manufacturers throughout the
country tonight. The wage conference
will be held in this city next Tuesday
afternoon and the Iron Association will
meet Wednesday to hear the report of their
committee. The manufacturers reiterate
that they will not only not grant an ad-
vance in finishing departments, but will
also refuse the demand of the boilers.

FOREIGN NEWS.
The AngIo-Turkish Deal.

CONsTANTINOPLE, June 15.-Sir Henry
Drummond Wolff, the special English rep
resentative to Turkey with reference, to
Egypt, has been instructed by his Govern
ment to adhere to the terms of the conven-
tiOn with regard to Egypt recently con-
Guided between Turkey and England.
The Sultan is in an exceedingly unhap-
py frame of mind. The Russian EmbaSsa-
doris protest against the ADglO-Turkish
treaty, coupled with thinly veiled accu-
satiOn that the agreement has been obtain
ed by the transfer of munifcent dOUceUr
from the expense funds of Sir Henry
DrummOnd Wolff to the private account
of the Sultan, hung the commander of the
Faithful upon the tenter-hOok of anxiety,
and now he is confronted with another
source of perplexity. The appendiDg OF
the signature of Queen Victoria to the
treaty makes the proclamation of the
agreement as an accomplished fact impera-
tive, and the English Government is await
ing for this fOrmality to be carried out.
Should the Sultan issue the imperial trade,
as doubtless he will, the act will be con-
strued by Russia into measure of def
ance, which to recant he would have to
abrogate his agreement with England, and
thus deprive himself of the only European
friend the Turkish Empire has ever had.
EFFECT ON THE BALKAN STATES.
The action of the Sultan in this matter
will no doubt have q greater effect upon
the ultimate status of the Balkan States
than any other single circumstance, and
will probably mark the beginning of the
inevitable movement which will remove
from the map of Europe everything indi-
eating that the Turkish Empire extends
beyond the confines of Asia Minor.
Every Balkan State, with the possible
exception of Montenegro, is more or less
Russianized, and the recent conspiracy in
the Sultan's palace could, if it were thor
Oughly investigated, be traced through the
paths Of intrigue to the golden promises of
Russian agents. There is no reason then
to doubt that Russia will resent the Sui
tan's disregard of the Cars protest against
the treaty; neither is there justification for
surmise that the Sultan will not comply
with the behest of England and promul-
gate the convention giving Great Britain
privileges for which he has paid over and
over again in gold and the blood of her
soldiers. Therefore it may be predicted
with certainty that the period of despOnd-
ency upon which the Sultan has now en-
tered will last until the European sOyer-
eighty of that potentate shall have ceased
to exist except in the dreamy reminis-
cences of a ruler of a country separated
from Europe by the Dardanelles, the Sea
of Marmora and the BOsphorus.
